Measure Applied Force with Greater Clarity
Take a more informed approach to push-and-pull force measurement with the Kovelli Digital Force Gauge.
Designed to measure forces up to 500 N (110 lb), this compact handheld instrument provides digital readings for controlled testing, practical force assessments, and repeatable measurement tasks.
Its backlit LCD and straightforward button layout make it easy to view readings, switch measurement units, and select the mode that fits your testing needs.
Three Measurement Modes for Different Testing Needs
Choose how force measurements are displayed and captured with three selectable operating modes.
Real-Time Mode displays the applied force as it changes during testing.
Peak Mode retains the highest measured value, allowing you to review the maximum force reached.
First Peak Mode captures the first peak reading during a test, offering another way to document force behavior.
Switch between modes using the dedicated PEAK control and clear a recorded reading with the ZERO button before beginning another measurement.
Clear Readings with Flexible Unit Selection
Read measurements directly from the LCD display and select the unit that best suits your application.
Switch between newtons (N), kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), and ounces (oz) using the dedicated UNIT button.
The configurable backlight makes readings easier to view under different lighting conditions, while the compact front control panel keeps essential functions within reach.
More Control Over Every Measurement
Customize measurement settings to suit different testing requirements.
The force gauge allows you to configure upper and lower measurement limits with an audible alert when the selected limits are exceeded.
Additional settings include minimum-force filtering, zero reset, configurable gravity acceleration, and automatic shutdown.
These functions provide greater flexibility for users who need consistent measurement procedures and clearly defined testing parameters.
Compact Design for Practical Everyday Testing
Built around a handheld ABS housing, the force gauge combines a digital display, five-button control layout, and threaded measurement connector in a compact form.
Its slim profile makes it convenient to handle during testing and store when not in use.
Whether used for workplace force assessments, equipment testing, or structured training measurements, the instrument brings multiple force measurement functions into one portable device
Know the Measurement Range Before You Begin
The 500 N model supports push-and-pull measurements within a defined force range, with a stated accuracy of ±1% across 10% to 100% of full scale.
Its internal sensor and selectable measurement modes support different force testing procedures, while the digital display provides a numerical readout.
For accurate operation, align the applied force with the instrument's measurement axis and avoid exceeding its rated capacity.
Simple Controls, Straightforward Operation
Start by installing two AAA batteries and selecting the appropriate measurement attachment for your testing setup.
Power on the instrument, select your preferred measurement unit and mode, then press ZERO to clear the reading before testing.
Apply force in line with the measurement connector and observe the live or recorded result on the LCD.
When finished, remove the applied load and power off the device or allow its automatic shutdown function to operate.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this digital force gauge measure?
What does this digital force gauge measure?
The instrument measures applied pushing and pulling forces, displaying numerical readings for various testing and assessment applications.
What is the maximum measurement capacity?
What is the maximum measurement capacity?
The maximum capacity is 500 newtons, approximately 110 pounds of force. Do not apply loads above the instrument's rated capacity.
What is the difference between the three measurement modes?
What is the difference between the three measurement modes?
Real-Time Mode shows changing force values as they occur. Peak Mode retains the highest measured value. First Peak Mode captures the first peak reading during a measurement sequence.
Can I switch between different measurement units?
Can I switch between different measurement units?
Yes. The digital display supports newtons (N), kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), and ounces (oz). Press the UNIT button to switch between units.
Does the device require charging?
Does the device require charging?
No. It operates using two 1.5V AAA batteries, which are not included.
Can I adjust the backlight and automatic shutdown settings?
Can I adjust the backlight and automatic shutdown settings?
Yes. The LCD backlight offers automatic, always-on, and off settings. Automatic shutdown can be configured from 0 to 15 minutes.
How accurate are the measurements?
How accurate are the measurements?
The instrument has a stated accuracy of ±1% over 10% to 100% of its full-scale measurement range. Follow the recommended operating procedure and keep applied force aligned with the measurement axis.
How should I clean and maintain the force gauge?
How should I clean and maintain the force gauge?
Clean the housing with a soft, lightly dampened cloth. Avoid harsh solvents, excessive moisture, and corrosive environments. Store and operate the instrument within the specified environmental conditions.
